I run backtrack as a main OS, and recently I wanted to dress it up a bit with Compiz.

Linux bt 3.2.6 #1 SMP Fri Feb 17 10:34:20 EST 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I have followed all directions on the tutorial here: http://www.backtrack-linux.org/forum...ad.php?t=29035 the only thing I wasn't able to grab was ' compiz-fusion-plugins-unsupported ' but everything installed fine, in my rc.local file I added everything just like the tutorial but left out the compiz-fusion-plugins-unsupported package. What happens is when I reboot everything loads fine with no errors before prompting root log in. After I startx everything loads fine, but the blue icon for the Compiz Fusion isn't in my upper bar, and my settings which are woggle windows do not work.. When I manually load Compiz Fusion Icons it loads fine > right click I have tried each option differently with no success. The screen flickers and nothing happens..

Then I rebooted, compiz did not auto load like suggested it should in rc.local, but after startx I am able to load the compiz fusion icons and use 'reload windows manager' to get it working.. I was also able to find the compiz unsupported files here: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source...ns-unsupported Though I have yet to get all of the window effects to work correctly, I am still pleased with the progress and the way it looks for now...
